From autoconf manual, section 5.6.1 Portability of Headers, says:
"""
The C99 standard says that inttypes.h includes stdint.h, so there's no
need to include stdint.h separately in a standard environment. Some
implementations have inttypes.h but not stdint.h (e.g., Solaris 7),
but we don't know of any implementation that has stdint.h but not
inttypes.h.
"""
The assert only evaluates to code if NDEBUG is undefined. Protect rv and its use accordingly

After reviewing codebase, only queue for DATA frames requires
priorities. Other frames can be replaced multiple linear queues.
Replacing priority queue with linear queue allows us to simplify
codebase a bit; for example, now nghttp2_session.next_seq is gone.
Since application most likely allocates the stream object in
nghttp2_on_begin_headers_callback, it is desirable to handle its
failure as stream error. But previously it only signals success or
fatal error. Submitting RST_STREAM does not prevent
nghttp2_on_header_callback from being invoked. This commit improves
this situation by allowing NGHTTP2_ERR_TEMPORAL_CALLBACK_FAILURE from
nghttp2_on_begin_headers_callback. If that value is returned, library
submits RST_STREAM with error code INTERNAL_ERROR, and
nghttp2_on_header_callback and nghttp2_on_frame_recv_callback for that
frame are not invoked. Note that for PUSH_PROMISE frame, the stream
to be reset is promised stream.
We rewrite static header table handling in nghttp2_hd.c. We expand
nghttp2_token to include all static header table entries, and fully
use them in header compression and decompression. The lookup function
is now located in nghttp2_hd.c. We add new nghttp2_hd_inflate_hd2()
function to export token value for header name, then we pass it to
nghttp2_http_on_header function, so that we don't have to look up
token there. We carefully set enum value of token to static table
index, so looking up static table is now O(1), assuming we have token.
nghttp2 library now use Literal Header Field never Indexed for
"authorization" header field and small "cookie" header field,
regardless of nghttp2_nv.flags.
The existing nghttp2_session_consume() affects both connection and
stream level flow control windows. The new functions only affects
either connection or stream. There is some interesting use cases.
For example, we may want to pause a stream by not sending
WINDOW_UPDATE, meanwhile we want to continue to process other streams.
In this case, we use nghttp2_session_consume_connection() to tell
library that only connection level window is recovered. The relevant

To avoid buffer copy in nghttp2_data_source_read_callback, this commit
introduces NGHTTP2_DATA_FLAG_NO_COPY and nghttp2_send_data_callback.
By using NGHTTP2_DATA_FLAG_NO_COPY in
nghttp2_data_source_read_callback, application can avoid to copy
application data to given buffer. Instead, application has to
implement nghttp2_send_data_callback to send complete DATA frame by
itself. We see noticeable performance increase in nghttpd and
tiny-nghttpd using this new feature. On the other hand, nghttpx does
not show such difference, probably because buffer copy is not
bottleneck. Using nghttp2_send_data_callback adds complexity, so it
is recommended to measure the performance to see whether this extra
complexity worth it.
Previously API reference is gigantic one rst file and it is a bit hard
to use, especially when browsing similar functions. This commit
splits API reference into smaller fine grained files. The macros,
enums, types are now in its own file. Each API function has its own
file now. API reference doc is now index to above documentation
files. The apiref-header.rst is renamed as programmers-guide.rst and
becomes standalone document.
